I stumbled on this great toy fair ad for Crystar today and it reminded me of the first time I saw the line in a Liesure World as a kid (a store that rarely carried action figures BTW). Remco and Marvel teamed up on this and it seemed like it would have been a big […]
Thanks to my new pal Uzay Bluestar, I have another entry in “never seen it before” category. Inflatable toys are sometimes the wild west in terms of information(not unlike rack toys) so it’s not surprising that I didn’t know this existed but I’m happy it does. Does anyone recognize that logo? Pegasus has the […]
While I’m happy Kenner married Star Wars with Play Doh and will agree that Hoth made an excellent choice, I am still completely bitter that I will never be able to make a Play Doh Lobot….
I found this bit of weirdness recently at the flea market, I can safely say Lorne Green did not approve licensed materials….
Dukes of Hazzard was the first time as a kid where there was a show that I watched and enjoyed but when that avalanche of merchandise arrived, I had no desire to own any of it. Boy though in 1981, if you could think of it, you could buy it with the General Lee on […]

However, Christmases were pretty darn similiar to ours thanks to toy companies like Clipper who distributed some of the best selling toys and games the world has to offer. […]
Click on picture for a better look Jarrod from The Monroe County Historical Sociiety sent me photos of an awesome display they’ve set up for the Holiday season. It’s a complete 1970s living room complete with vintage furniture shag carpeting, a tree with original 70s ornaments and enough toys to make ten awesome 70s Christmases. […]
When I first launched the Popy World Hero gallery, I had a few mysteries to solve like who certain characters were and the like. I’m happy to announce that the gallery attracted like minded folks who joined in and helped out, filling in a pile of gaps, like who was mystery figure 17? I now […]
I’ve never blogged about these two, the jewels of my bendy collection, the Mummy (with card artwork swiped from the Aurora model) and the Wolfman! Not sure who this shirtless gentleman is but he’s no Lon Chaney Jr. Unless that money tree i planted blooms, this is the closest I’ll ever come to this lagoon […]
